Niacinamide
Vitamine B3
Niacinamide are a form of Vitamin B3, also known as Nicotinamide. In the body, niacinamide is essential for numerous metabolic processes. Its positive effects on the skin are nearly undisputed. Niacinamide is anti-inflammatory, helps to even out skin tone, and promotes ceramide synthesis. This strengthens the skin barrier and supports overall skin health.

3-O-Etyl Ascorbic Acid
Vitamin C
Ethyl Ascorbic Acid is a specialized form of Vitamin C. It is particularly effective because it does not need to be converted into pure ascorbic acid within the skin. This form is also very stable in creams, allowing it to deliver long-lasting and well-tolerated results. Vitamin C supports collagen synthesis, promoting firm skin. Studies have shown that Ethyl Ascorbic Acid can even help reduce the appearance of age spots.

Retinol
Highly effective form of vitamin A
Retinol is a highly effective form of vitamin A, playing a crucial role in maintaining the skin's structure. The skin's outermost layer is composed of corneocytes (horn cells), and vitamin A promotes their formation while supporting the skin's regeneration process. This results in improved skin texture and visibly smoother skin.

Sodium Retinoyl Hyaluronate
Retinoic acid esters with hyaluronic acid
Retinoic acid, also known as Tretinoin, is the most potent but also the most irritating form of vitamin A. Recently, esters of pure retinoic acid have gained attention in skincare. An ester is formed when retinoic acid is chemically bonded to another compound, making it less irritating. For example, retinoic acid can be esterified with hyaluronic acid (
INCI: Sodium Retinoyl Hyaluronate
), combining the benefits of both ingredients. Retinoic acid esters are particularly intriguing when used alongside retinol or retinal for enhanced skincare results.

Epigallocatechin Gallate
Active compound of green tea
Epigallocatechin Gallate (EGCG) is the active compound in green tea. Catechins are polyphenols that belong to the group of secondary plant metabolites. Their most important property is their antioxidant potential. EGCG neutralizes free radicals and has anti-inflammatory effects. For optimal efficacy, our EGCG is encapsulated. Tiny carrier particles ensure that this active ingredient penetrates deeply into the skin for maximum effect.

Tetraacetylphytosphingosine
Strengthen the skin barrier and combat inflammation
Our bodies are primarily composed of water, with the remainder consisting of cells. Sphingosines are essential components of these cells, playing a key role in building the skin barrier and fighting inflammation. From the sphingosines we use, all types of ceramides—fundamental elements of the skin—can be formed. This helps the skin retain optimal hydration and maintain a healthy glow. We use specialized plant-based sphingosines that work particularly well in creams.
